color: medium purple; nose: musty oak; taste: medium body, subdued muddy-earth dark fruit taste, medium-length finish with nice tannins (but, sadly, also a tad sour and chalky); overall: in a word, tired -- feel and taste are surprisingly Old World (which aren't virtues for an Aussie shiraz!), just-OK QPR ($14) for what it delivers, pales in comparison to numerous tastier and cheaper peers -- so I won't buy this wine again

Not bad for the price. Light bodied for an Aussie shiraz. Medium acidity & lots of grippy tannis, which is almost unheard of down under. Decent. [14.0% abv.; $7.00].

Decanted for at least 30 mins. Very soft tannins on dark fruit. Quite nice.

Haskell's Wine Sale Tasting; 4/5/2010-4/6/2010 (Bloomington): Simple but nice for $10. Floral, spice and cherry. Medium finish and smooth.
